Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset
Jawbone eliminates real world noise better than any other headset because it is the only headset that can accurately separate speech from ambient noise.

The mobile phone is the prevailing communication tool for business and personal productivity, and people expect to be able to use their phones in all environments without sacrificing audio quality. Jawbone's patented NoiseAssassin™ technology is unique in its ability to separate speech from ambient noise with remarkable precision. Jawbone's NoiseAssassin is able to achieve this while other headsets cannot.

These required powerful noise suppression algorithms for use in the most extreme acoustic noise environments including battlefields and helicopters. The algorithms use Jawbone's two microphones and the VAS to accurately model the noise environment.

Jawbone detects when and how a person is speaking, models the noise, and aggressively eliminates it.

Conventional "noise eliminating" headsets do not have the VAS and can only estimate when speech is occurring with software-based Voice Activation Detection (VAD) systems. For these systems to work, the speech must be significantly louder or spectrally different from the noise. These systems fail in loud environments or in the presence of other people's speech. Furthermore, because they can't accurately identify the speech signals, they distort the speech in the process of attempting to eliminate the noise. The result of this distortion is a significant degradation in intelligibility and quality in order to achieve a perceptual reduction in noise.

Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset

Reviewed By Our Editors

The sleek, elegant design of the Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset pretty much describes the performance of this headset – simple, clean and convenient. It is equipped with innovative technology that enhances the sound the headset produces for a noise-free conversation.

Since communication is highly essential in this age, it is very important to stay connected to your friends. And for a lot of people, mobile phones are a must have. But, we don’t want to use our hands holding a mobile phone up on our ear all day, do we? With the technology of Bluetooth, you can converse using you phone without even touching it. Now, you can connect the Aliph Jawbone 2 to you mobile phone using Bluetooth, and you’re ready to talk – with style.

Jawbone took noise reduction standards to a higher level. The ground-breaking NoiseAssassin technology eliminates real-world distortions of sounds much better than ordinary headsets. What it does is that it perfectly splits the conversational speech from the outside noise, so that you and the person you’re conversing with will understand each other clearly.

Standard usual "noise removing" headsets do not have the Voice Activation Detection. These standard headsets recognize louder sounds, meaning, you need to talk really loud to be understood. First of all, this will ultimately fail if you are in an equally-loud environment. Second of all, to achieve you have to move the microphone closer to your mouth, which defeats the purpose of the hands-free technology of headsets, right?

Convenience and top-notch performance quality is what Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset offers, It automatically identifies when and how a person is speaking. It then models the noise, and aggressively gets rid of it. Actually, what it does is it recognizes the vibration coming from your cheek (created everytime you speak), that’s why outside noises are not recognized at all, even under extreme circumstances such as rock concerts or even when near a helicopter.

But the Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset is not just technologically pleasing, it is aesthetically fancy as well. The black sophisticated design of this high-tech device would even pass as jewelry! Don’t you hate it when you’re wearing a really elegant outfit, only to be ruined by a piece of technological device hanging from your ear? This headset has no visible buttons at all, eliminating the techie feel to it. The touch-surface technology lets you operate switches by lightly pressing the outside shield. Plus, it is made of ultra-smooth medical-grade plastic, so you are also assured of durability.

Comfort, of course, is not neglected in the design of this headset. The design of this headset consists of an outer shield and an inner surface. The outer shield bends in a rectilinear manner to follow the face for ultra-snug comfort. The Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset sits comfortably in your earlobe as you forget that it’s even there.

And for further convenience, this does not require any separate battery. All you have to do is charge your Jawbone headset via the wall charger, or via a USB port on your computer.

Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset is more than what meets the eye. Its simple and elegant design is posh while its innovative and convenient noise-reduction technology would make you want to wear it every time you need to make calls on the go.

I have purchased many bluetooth headsets and they all have 1 thing in common. When it comes to hearing someone on the ther end while you are driving, they all suck. You have to put up your windows, turn off the head/AC and radio. Except for the JawBone. With the JawBone, I was able to hear in any environment I was in. I went so far as sitting in from of my stereo spearker with the music turned up to a higher than normal level and was able to hear just as if they were in the same room. The person I was talking to said they could't hear the music at all. I recently lost my JawBone and will be buying aother one very shortly from here.

I bought the jawbone a month ago. I did much research before I bought. I need the noise cancelling in a noisy environment. I have tried it in similar situaions as shown on their website. This is a pretty good earpiece. The advertising is deceptive in my opinion. The unit that I have does NOT perform anywhere near what the videos show. Not even close. The person on the other end will hear plenty of background noise (people talking, etc.) If you are anywhere near noisy construction equipment, it will come through your call very loud. I called support for jawbone. Customer service was friendly. I proved to the operator that it did not work as advertised. He confirmed that the unit was working correctly. He could hear plenty of background noise. He said that I could order different earbuds to try to alleviate the problem. No other answer to the issue. I am a technically savvy user. This is a decent headset. Just don't buy expecting what jawbone is promoting. I am very dissappointed.

I drive a truck for a living and most people have no idea just how noisy that environment is. I bought another brand of Bluetooth device and it was sheer disaster. I had to STOP driving and turn the truck off, so they could hear me. This Jawbone Bluetooth is, bar NONE, the BEST in class! The extra money you spend on it will be repaid when you DON'T lose that big sale, trust me. Hat's off to the gang that make these.

I purchased one of these after reading a lot of positive reviews on them. Unfortunately I was very disappointed with this unit. I think it really depends of which cell phone (manufacturer/model) you're pairing it with. In my case it was a Samsung SGH-a516. The incoming sound quality was very good, but those I called and spoke to consistently told me the sound was very muffled and, it was hard to understand me (even when I was parked.) I left a msg. on my landline's voice mail and could hear for myself how crappy the outgoing sound quality was. Also, the over-the-ear attachments snap off and break very very easily. I returned it 2 days after purchasing it. If you don't want to be tethered to an in-ear headset, and just need something for your car, instead I'd recommend the BlueAnt Supertooth 3, wireless speaker kit, which attaches to your visor. It's vastly superior in terms of both incoming and outgoing sound quality and very easy to use.

I have purchased several bluetooth earpieces. This is by far the GREATEST. I can talk in stores, with the windows rolled down, radio playing in the background and no one can hear the background noise. If you can get past the price, I highly recommend it.

What You Should Know

What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range communications technology intended to replace the cables connecting portable and/or fixed devices while maintaining high levels of security. The key features of Bluetooth technology are robustness, low power, and low cost.

It’s more than seeing. It’s believing.
Before wires, everything was wireless. Nature found ways to connect it all—often on a very mysterious frequency. Bluetooth wireless technology takes its prompt from nature: harmonious, intuitive, seamless. Products with Bluetooth wireless technology communicate with a sense of purpose and elegant efficiency. Today, Bluetooth wireless technology can eliminate wires. In the future, it may make the word “wireless” entirely obsolete.  By then, Bluetooth freedom will be second nature.

Designed to make connectivity invisible and reliable. A perfect convergence of extraordinary technology and elegant simplicity. Hundreds of companies are on board. Thousands of engineers have contributed. Standards have been set. Specifications have been approved. More than one billion devices are in use. And people are experiencing just how far they can go. 

It’s integrating every dimension of productivity.
Where do we work? Desk. Sofa. Car. Hotel. Kitchen. Plane. Yard. It’s not one location; it’s everywhere. It’s not one application; it’s many. With Bluetooth wireless technology, our options are endless. It’s where we’d most expect it and where we’d least expect it—and everywhere in between. It adapts to how we work and how we live, transforming everyday tasks into everyday solutions. Surprising, nimble, ubiquitous. Seeking new applications and finding new opportunities—everywhere we turn.

Technically, Bluetooth is a specification for the use of low-power radio communications to wirelessly link phones, computers and other network devices over short distances. The name "Bluetooth" is borrowed from Harald Bluetooth, who was a king in Denmark more than 1,000 years ago (Computer people choose the strangest names!). Bluetooth technology was designed primarily to support simple wireless networking of personal consumer devices and peripherals, including cell phones, PDAs, and wireless headsets.
